A comment about the Subway gift card.I tried to use one and had difficulties. First,the money was not loaded onto the card and I had to return with my receipt and have it taken care of. That resulted in money out of pocket to pay for my meal. No problem since I still have the gift card,right? Wrong.A few days later I attempted to use my gift card when I bought lunch for DH and self. The total was about seven dollars. I handed the cashier my five dollar gift card and the remainder in cash. He could not deduct the gift card for payment. Since my purchase was over the amount on the gift card,the register would not take it.So, once again I could not use the gift card for my purchase.Hopefully they have ironed out all the bugs on this new program. If not,make sure your purchase is not over five dollars before you use the gift card (or whatever amount you have on it)

Sorry to hear about your problems with the card - makes me glad I passed on this because the fee wasn't good for the required scenario.

I had a similar problem with a Subway card like yours. I won a $5 card and went to redeem it by buying a footlong meal. The cashier told me the same balogna when I presented my cash and the card. I told him fine; took back the card and cash; and said to cancel the meal. He said it was already made. I said fine; I had a card and cash on the barrel that was refused.

My very first job was a Subway shop. I got the meal covered and a small fee and thought it was the greatest job ever. I never saw another one and have been hunting ever since. Based on how they are paid now with a gift card, I don't think I want one.

Stella41, my understanding is that there is a uniform requirement for Subway employees. But since the reveal shops don't require us to care about uniforms, we don't really have to mess with it.

On a funny note, I had a reveal shop a couple of weeks ago where the employee at the register correctly tried to upgrade me. Turns out, he was the district manager who was helping the line that day. It was so funny watching the staff razz him about it. When I handed the store manager the Congratulations certificate, he tried to quickly take it away from her (he failed). Another employee then asked him if he would like for them to buy a frame to hang it on the wall for him. It was hilarious.

I don't believe the new ones I saw are reshops; more like a complete different part of town. So far, the three releases I've seen were located in different areas. They might be releasing demographically.

Did 8 of these shops 4 one day and 4 two days later. Two days in one week not paying for dinner for my family of 4 is GREAT! Sure wish I could find more like these. I live in such a small town all shops are hard to come by, not to mention in my full-time job I work with two other shoppers! What competition the three of us have trying to find these.('')('')

Before kids my husband and I did these often - but while I was pregnant with my daughter I ate at Subway almost every day - and would get the exact same thing each time. So I sort of got sick of them for a while. And gained a lot of weight (they should have used me in an ad!!).

But now my daughter is going to be four and I believe I would like to start doing these again. Loved them.

Saw the advertisement for "easy" shop. I was wary, so only took two. Now I'm wishing I had snapped up all the ones in my area. This current sub shop took 6 minutes at the location and another 4 to enter the report (yes, 4). So, get them while you can!
